Another Monte Carlo Renormalization Group Algorithm

Computational Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A Monte Carlo Renormalization Group algorithm is used on the Ising model to derive critical exponents and the critical temperature. The algorithm is based on a minimum relative entropy iteration developed previously to derive potentials from equilibrium configurations. This previous algorithm is modified to derive useful information in an RG iteration. The method is applied in several dimensions with limited success. Required accuracy has not been achieved, but the method is interesting.
